STUPID, LOUDMOUTHED, AGING, OPPORTUNISTIC
TURNCOAT HIPPIE CONTINUES TO FIGHT COLD WAR


Professsional asshole, David Horowitz, flaps his gums again:

Exactly how many poor people have progressives starved since 1917? It's a good question.

Russia was the breadbasket of Europe until progressives seized power that year and instituted policies to "share the wealth." For the next 70 years -- until socialism collapsed -- Russia was a net importer of food, always on the brink of famine.

In the 1930s, Josef Stalin instigated a campaign to collectivize farming in the Ukraine -- a campaign that created a man-made famine within a year, killing between 6 million and 11 million Ukrainians.

How does shit like this even end up on an editor's desk?

Horowitz equates progressivism with Stalinism. Big mistake. Stalin was no progressive; he was a murderous totalitarian, the opposite of a progressive. Furthermore, Horowitz also equates the underhanded, economically barbaric tactics of both Stalin and Zimbabwe's moron-in-chief, Robert Mugabe, with ALL governmental interference in the economy aimed at benevolent ends--am I to conclude that, because Stalin was and Mugabe is evil, universal health care is somehow conceptually evil, too? This is pretty lousy conservative propaganda. To add insult to injury, Horowitz, with his "progressive chickens are coming home to roost" line, cynically quotes the fiery civil rights leader of the 1960s Malcolm X. I guess this is to establish Horowitz's credentials as someone who was there, man! Which, I suppose, means that he is also in the best position to ham-handedly bash 1960s ideals.

David Horowitz is either a nut or a cynical, pandering Limbaugh wannabe. His over-the-top, finger-wagging, lecturing bullshit utterly exemplifies my disgust with the baby boomer generation. In short, he's a pig.
